Alli
Steve. My old boyfriend.
And he's going to go to Degrassi.
I ran into Spinner's room and grabbed his little address book. I looked up Craig's number. 555-9821
"Hello?" Craig said, answering the phone.
"Craig?" I said, frantically.
"Yeah. Who's this?" he asked.
"Alli."
"Oh. Hey Alli! How's it going?" he asked.
"Pretty good. Listen, is Steve really your cousin and is moving up here?"
"Yeah. He's so psyched to see you. Don't worry though, I didn't tell him that you went out with Jimmy. But I'm glad to bring you two together again. He sent me pictures online of you guys over the summer. I swear you all look great together!" he said, sounding very happy with himself.
"Oh Yeah! I'm so happy to see him," I said, faking happiness.
"Okay. Well, hey I was just out the door, so I'll see you on Sunday when Steve moves in. bye"
"Bye."

God. How could this happen? What was I going to do? I mean, I love Steve. I do. But I really like Spinner too. And I just ruined Spinner's relationship with Manny, and I don't want to ruin my potential relationship with Spinner. GOD!
Spinner
I chased Manny all the way to her house. When she got up to her porch, she stopped and turned around. Her face was beat red and her hair was disheveled. The mascara on her eyes, along with her eyeliner, and ran down her cheeks. Her eye shadow was smeared to the sides of her face, probably from when she wiped her eyes.
"Spinner. How could you do this to me?" she asked.
I stopped at the steps of her porch. She sat down on the top step, while I sat down on the ground. "Manny, it's complicated."
"Complicated my ass. Tell me right now what's going on!" she said.
"You don't want to know."
She coughed. "Yes I do!"
"Fine. I went out with you because I wanted to get Alli jealous. And I really really like Alli. Don't get me wrong, Manny, I do like you. But not the way I like Alli. So you just have to understand okay? What I did was wrong, and I do understand that, but I cannot help myself okay?"
She punched me in the face. "You are a jerk Spinner! I cannot believe you! You used me!"
I grabbed my face. "I'm sorry Manny! But I think we should just break up and just forget about all of this."
"No shit! Get off of my property! I hate you, don't ever talk to me again!" she screamed.
So I left. I admit it. It was wrong. But what can you do? If you really like somebody, it's all worth it in the end.
Alli
Oh god. Oh god. OH GOD! This is soo messed up.
In the midst of my thoughts, they were interrupted by Spinner saying, "Alli! I'm back. I am SO sorry about this!"
I spun around. I wiped my eyes quickly because I didn't want to show the tears that were forming in my eyes. "Its okay, Spin. Listen, we need to talk."
His face scrunched up. He looked really confused. "Okay. What about?"
"Well..."
"Alli. Please don't tell me that you don't want this. That you don't want me and you. Because I really like you a lot. And I know that I just met you, but I have never felt this way about any girl before. It's the weirdest thing. But I feel like you are just, the perfect girl for me."
I sniffled. What am I going to do?! "Spin, I really like you a lot. I just uhh..."
Spinner
OH my god. Please don't tell me that she wants to break it off before it has already begun. I don't need this now. I really like her!
She paused. "I umm..."
"What? Just tell me! Don't be afraid," I said, trying to sound calm.
"Steve called me today."
"Who's Steve?" I asked.
"My old boyfriend from umm... back home."
I felt my stomach rise up to my chest. I swallowed hard. "And?"
"And he's moving up here. With Craig."
And then my stomach dropped down to the floor. "Okay..."
She closed her eyes. A single tear went down her cheek. I brushed it away with my hand gently as she said, "I just don't want you to think that you and me aren't going to happen because he's moving up here. It's just going to be you and me, because I don't want to ruin what could be the best thing in my life."
I smiled. Oh god I love this girl. "Alli! Oh my goodness!" I said as I cupped her chin and kissed her.
Alli
And he kissed me. And it feels so good to finally be in his arms. But why do I feel like I just made the biggest mistake in my entire life. Why do I feel like Steve is going to hate me for the rest of my life?
